Create image thumbnail using PHP

Today I am going to write about a simple PHP script that enable your php project to resize image according to mentioned measurment. You may also create proportionate size thumbnail of any image. At the end I have added a download link of the script so that you can practice or make something more rich script. Lets see how the php script work:

Source of Image that need to be resized. For example: $_FILES[“file_1”][“tmp_name”]

Numeric width for new Image

Numeric height for new Image

Destination directory location

and the last one is optional, do u need the image re-size proportionately.

In the script package I have included a practice environment. Functionality of all files and folder in the script package are as follows:

index.php : It contain HTML form to browse any image file and mention new image dimension, tell activity message, and execute the image resizing function from library. The HTML form will similarly to the below screen shot:

read me.txt : Contain the installation process of the library.

img_folder : This folder is used to store new re sized images.

lib : This folder contain only the “thumb_image.php” file that You may use to re size your images.
